Climb Strong coach Joel Unema explains how to perform a Critical Force test using a Tension Block and Tindeq Progressor.
The Critical Force test has gained popularity in the coaching community as a test that evaluates all three of a climbers energy systems and provides excellent information to direct training efforts geared toward that climbers goals.
This is a fairly grueling test and likely should only be performed by relatively well trained climbers.
This is an instructional video originally made for athletes to take this test remotely, then receive evaluation and programming from one of our coaches. You can learn more about consultations with a CS Coach here: [ Ссылка ]
Should we make another video with a breakdown of how to evaluate the different energy systems after taking the test? Let us know in the comments below!
